[git pull] vfs.git fixes

A couple of fixes (-stable fodder) + dead code removal after the
overlayfs fix; I agree that it's better to separate from the fix part
to make backporting easier, but IMO it's not worth delaying said dead
code removal until the next window. Please, pull from

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git for-linus

Shortlog:
Al Viro (2):
ovl: get rid of the dead code left from broken (and disabled) optimizations
Don't reset ->total_link_count on nested calls of vfs_path_lookup()

Miklos Szeredi (1):
ovl: fix permission checking for setattr
